Abstract
Symbolic state space traversal techniques are best on control-dominated circuits, not on data paths. This paper extends their applicability to regular structures commonly found in data paths by using auxiliary variables to decompose and to manipulate Boolean functions in decomposed form. Experimental results demonstrate the gain both in terms of binary decision diagram (BDD) size and CPU time.Pubblicazioni consigliate
